Hi! I'm Ashley and I’m a middle school science teacher and volleyball coach. My whole life I’ve been working with kids of all ages, at summer camps, sports teams, etc. Before becoming a middle school teacher, I substitute taught at elementary schools and even lived in New Zealand as an au pair, working with two boys, 4 and 6 years old. I am very busy at the moment where I can only take on occasional jobs, usually on the weekends or holiday breaks. Nonetheless, please reach out if you think we’d be a good fit!

I have also been babysitting for the past two years, especially through UrbanSitter, caring for children of different ages and helping with activities and daily routines.

Booked by 4 families in Los Gatos, CA

Hi, Families! My name is Lauren, and I’m excited to be joining UrbanSitter as a caregiver! While I’m new to the platform, I’m certainly not new to caring for children. In fact, when my own children were little, I relied on UrbanSitter to find trusted caregivers for my family. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to give back by supporting other families. I am a credentialed California teacher with the Cupertino Unified School District and have dedicated my career to helping children learn, grow, and thrive. Before becoming a classroom teacher, I owned and operated a licensed large family child care home for 10 years while raising my own two children. This has given me extensive experience caring for infants through school-age children in both home and educational settings. As both a teacher and caregiver, I create safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children feel supported and parents have peace of mind. Whether it’s helping with homework, driving to activities, playing outside, creating crafts, reading together, or keeping bedtime routines on track, I bring patience, creativity, and genuine enthusiasm to every family I work with. I’m very active and love sports, outdoor adventures, and keeping kids engaged through play. I’m CPR certified and have health and safety training. I also have experience supporting children with diverse needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and Down Syndrome. Every child is unique, and I take pride in meeting them where they are with kindness and encouragement. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy spending time with our own two children, exploring the outdoors, and spoiling our friendly little French Bulldog. I would be honored to earn your trust and provide exceptional care for your children. I can’t wait to meet your family!

“Lauren was great! My 4 year old was upset about having a babysitter and cried when the doorbell rang, but within 10 minutes he was leaning against Lauren - his first time meeting her - while she read him a book. Lauren was prompt, professional, and great with our son- we will have her back!”
